Air Force’s season comes to a close.

Game two of the Mountain West tournament is a wrap. As expected, UNLV dismantled Air Force by a final score of 80-52, simply dominating performance from the Academy.

Third Team All-Conference guard David Jenkins Jr. led all scorers with 21 points, while drilling six from deep.

First Team All-Conference wing, Bryce Hamilton dropped 18 points, seven rebounds & four assists.

Not much went right for the Academy, only two players scored in double-figures, A.J. Walker had 16 points and Nikc Jackson posted 14 points with five blocks. Joe Scott‘s team went just 2-18 from deep, equating to an ugly 11%. It was just that kind of season for Air Force.
